• When we waste food, we end up wasting all of the resources that went into growing it. Growing food that goes to waste currently uses 21% of our freshwater, 19% of our fertilizer, and 18% of our cropland.
• When food ends up in the landfill, it produces methane, a greenhouse gas 23 times as potent as CO2. Reducing food waste is one of the top three ways to reverse global warming.
• 40 million Americans go hungry every year. Recovering just 30% of the food that our country wastes each year would be enough to feed this population of Americans.

Hence when you order and consume Wonky produce which is currently thrown away as waste, you are helping the environment.
